holy shit seriously? What’s your modlist then…2.5 catless, 2.5 catback, JHM Intake Manifold and Supercharger? (+ a few little bits)? That’s going to be a pretty fantastic setup. Think you’ll go to the dragstrip for fun?

it was sick. He ran 10.75 the one run I saw. No drama or anything. Car look nice and sleeper. Was grey even. He had drag radials on the rear and that’s it. Imagine doing a highway pull with that guy think it’s ‘just another’ GT500 (which never seem to be as fast as they ought to)? WHOA!
Im thinking they don’t really know how to tune all that well. They have had so so results over the years and only as of late do they have a kinda word of mouth and soft here and there showing. No MRC car has ever really performed well or been shown to be any faster then even some of the weakest tunes. So If I was betting I would say they just don’t know how to use the tune to adjust the HPFP system.
want a good laugh? search youtube for “Santa Pod MRC”
MRC is 40 miles from Santa Pod, the one legit dragstrip in the U.K. You’d think there’d be tons of 10 and 11 second B5 S4/RS4s since MRC seems to produce nothing but 600-700 and even 800 hp cars. Instead, there’s none. Bunch of 12.3-12.5 cars. lol
Anyway, I asked them if they’d take this supercharged RS4 to Santa Pod and they said they would. We’ll see.
the only impressive results I’ve ever seen from MRC come from their own dyno
Those crazy Brits lol. I see that someone else has got the APR RS4 s/c and got it retuned but not by MRC. Here’s the link FWIW: http://forum.rs246.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=93030&p=477610#p477510
well, these aren’t drag cars you know 
that’s everyone’s classic refrain when they are scared to prove the validity of a power adding part. Pretty funny.
Why would you want to drive your car as fast as possible to test a power-adder?
Back on topic, when’s Rod’s B5 going to take on the JHM stable 
He’s scurred.
Yep, I hope to have it next week. My mod list is 2.5 catback, piggies w/ 2.5 test pipe, intake manifold, stage 3 clutch and LWFW, LW rotors on all corners and a few other items. Next year the plan is to put on the headers. And yes, I will be hitting the track early spring.
Yeah, the GT500s always seemed a bit off to me. Fast cars, but not as fast as I would have expected. I have to check, but I think the new Boss 302 is running times similar to the old GT500. With that said, 10.75 is a serious time for a street car. I am sure he has shocked quite a few people.
the new boss 302 is pretty fking ridiculous so far.
11s on stock everything but tires
10s with bolt ons. Wow.
